So much pulp and so many robots that they seemed to have thought of everything. Any requests ?

Automaton let's have a few more artistic related covers.

Music , Painting, Sculpture ect.

I used to own a great pulp book that had aliens playing instruments.

I can't track it down at this moment.

Also if we exhaust the arts I wonder if there is the odd cover portraying robots or any sci-fi related 

involving sporting activities.

The Fantastic Universe robots or at least one of them I think was built full scale by Mark. 'Eagle'

Interesting, the model type turns up a few times so it must be popular.

 

I found out more on the tentacle box creatures. They are Zorome's which are brains put inside robot bodies that don't age, sleep, have little emotion but are scientists who go on hundred year missions across the universe to learn about everything. The main character is Professor Jameson who had his body frozen in space after he died and four hundred million years later after mankind is extinct they awaken him, talk him out of suicide and offer him to become one of them which he agrees to. The stories are good with lots of sci fi concepts  and have been collected Ace books

 

Here is the final cover with them although they are in the ship and so you cant see them

 

I found out a 3D model was made in 2014 and I contacted the company who unfortunately wont be making anymore

As much as I like/appreciate this style of art I do think we are moving away from what I deem as pulp art.

Just a thought.

 

BTW your contributions up till now have been fantastic.:cheers:
